Was Britain better as Thatcher left as PM than it was before she started?

What about for Blair?
Blair has caused far more damage than Maggie ever did.

Funny how the Labour lovers try to brush his era under the carpet even though they voted for him.


I think you will find its the Tory voter who swayed it for him.
 
I have a couple of questions for the lefties.

why if the thatcher government did wrong to shut the pits why didn't labour re open them when in power?

if the thatcher governments policies were so wrong why did labour not reverse them?

I mean they had enough time to do so.

I know you will say tone was a tory but surely his mp's had a say.
 
Can someone explain to me (short version) why some people hate Thatcher so much? Our media over here makes it sound like she pulled, what was considered one of the worst countries in Europe at the time, out of the mud and turned England into the 4th biggest economy in the world.

Because some of us lefties can see the bigger picture without being a massive twat in the process. Yes, things needed changing but I was struck by a comment yesterday; 'she was great at dismantling but she was at a loss as what to do after that...,'
That sums her up for me

Only to stop the rioting because the general consensus is that this should be a private funeral not a ceremonial one. But just like everything she did in life and death DIVIDED the nation.

We may have our twats but don't forget that it was a leftie that had to tell Maggie it was time to go ;-)
Mainly because your lot didn't have the stomach for it.
